The bar chart illustrates the share of both males and females passing their driving test in a particular Asian country from 1980 to 2010. Overall, the probability of women to pass the test was significantly higher than men’s over the years observed, and there is a clear increasing trend in both categories until 2000 after which women’s proportion dropped, whilst that of men leveled off.
Focusing first on women’s charts, initially their percentage accounted for approximately 48%. In the following decade, this share grew by a mere 3% before witnessing a stark increase of 17% in 2000. However, in the final year, women’s proportion decreased slightly from roughly 68% to 65%.
As for men’s results, at first they started with only 28% which later experienced a steady growth of 21% by 2000. In contrast, in 2010 their share remained unchanged at about 49%.
